Chapter 158 Poor
The sky has not yet fully brightened, and if the cold air in the air is solid, every breath is filled with thick white air.
In the cold palace, a little eunuch ignited a ground dragon, and the warm current slowly spread.
Several palace maids began to bury their heads to clean up, and the dust on the ground told the loneliness here.
Since Emperor Gengyuan and the deposed prince both died here, Chunhe Palace, the original center of the empire, has become an ominous place.
Xinjun Zhao Cai rarely set foot, so of course there is no reason for others to come here. Everyone knows that since a hundred decades ago, this has always been the most important decision-making and issuance place in Daqi.
Half an hour later, an eunuch was holding a lamp, Zhao Cai wore a black fox fur and a leather crown, and walked into Chunhe Palace.
Six ministers were kneeling on both sides, all looking at each other, not knowing why they were summoned in the morning.
These old ministers were all related to the royal family, and they were worried that the emperor would accidentally say something and kill him.
You know, the court is full of Zhongyong Hou's eyes and ears. If you hold a small meeting here, you may know it immediately.
After a while, Zhao Cai came and sat on the dragon throne, looking very energetic. After all, he was young and he didn't look sleepy when he woke up so early.
Zhao Cai's mouth moved, but he didn't say it, and called the old eunuch Wang Xiang to his side and whispered.
Wang Xiang looked embarrassed, but still asked seriously: "All the people here are old ministers of the country, and they should share the worries of the country. Your Majesty asked, what business can make two or three times the profit in three months?"
Everyone who was almost at the throat was stunned by the heart.
What does the little emperor want money to do?
Of course they didn't dare to ask more, but finally breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Eunuch Wang, aren't you making things difficult for us? How can you make so much money in such a short time? If so? Wouldn't everyone be rich?"
Zhao Cai looked around and felt very disappointed. He often slipped out of the palace recently. He couldn't even buy many novel things.
Especially last time I met a hunting dog from the Western Regions. It ran as fast as flying. The Hu man bid 5,000 taels. Zhao Cai himself was embarrassed to say that he would buy 5,000 taels of silver from the inner palace? Go and buy a dog.
You know, five thousand taels can support hundreds of wealthy families.
If we know that the Emperor of the Great Qi spent 5,000 taels to buy a dog, it would probably become a rich and powerful piece in history books, and it would be a terrifying thing for thousands of years.
The young emperor encountered the trouble of growing up. He was originally a passionate boy, but Chen Shou's layers of "protection" made him unable to touch anything that could be passionate. Instead, he was surrounded by voices, dogs, horses, cocks, and dogs, shooting eagles and hunting...
As we all know, a young man’s fun is even bigger than the sky, and his will will also depress you.
The most important thing is that Zhao Cai almost never went abroad to the palace? He was not trained as an emperor. His vision was actually very low.
The Marquis of Handan Zhao Xu smiled and said, "If Your Majesty lacks money, you can ask the Ministry of Revenue... Now our great Qi family is rich and has many people."
After hearing this, Zhao Cai was moved and thought to himself that after the morning court today, he would leave Zhao Xiangcheng, the Minister of Revenue, to ask.

Early in the morning, Bianliang Street.
A team of people galloped past Cross Street. The leader, tall and big, sat in front of a noodle soup shop and shouted: "Give a bowl of noodle soup and add two meat pies."
In the imperial garden, only the emperor's laughter and sparse barking of dogs remain.
---
"hound?"
Inside the water pavilion, Chen Shou asked with a frown.
"That's right, it's a hunting dog from the Western Regions. I remember you said that as long as your Majesty likes, you can buy it for him to play with it. The money can be...uh, hehe."
Chen Shou nodded and said, "This is fine. Even if it is reported to the Jin Yuwei account, I will ask someone to make the account."
Gao Huan picked up the big thumb and said, "Mr. Marquis is so arrogant!"
Chen Shou knocked his finger on the table and asked jokingly: "Gao Huan, you haven't falsely reported it?"
"How is that possible? My subordinates' loyalty to the Marquis is like the stone of Mount Tai, and like the pine of Mount Huang..."
Chen Shou waved his hand and said, "Okay, I don't know you yet. Please report it less. It's nothing to give me some errands money. What else can I pretend to be with me?"
Gao Huan blushed and smiled embarrassedly: "The Marquis's eyes are as sharp as a torch."
"Have Your Majesty fallen in love with hunting recently?" Chen Shou asked casually.
"It should be true. When my subordinates saw him and saw a hound, they were like you saw a beauty, with their eyes lit up."
Chen Shou slapped the table and cursed: "Bastard!"
"The subordinates are verbal but not intent, so the marquis forgives the crime."
Chen Shou was too lazy to see this bad guy and said, "Please be careful. Where is our foundation? You don't know. I'm not afraid of how strong the external enemy is. If you are not careful inside, we will never escape and die, or will it be doomed, you know?"
"I understand."
"We can get rid of Wei Yunse, we can get rid of the late emperor, we can get rid of the deposed prince, and others can also follow the example, and don't be given to me by my own way."
Gao Huan didn't care much about it and walked out with a smile. Chen Shou stood up, took the hot towel handed over by Tao'er, and asked while wiping his face: "Are you ready for everything you have prepared?"
Tao'er wrung a new one for him and smiled and said, "Mrs. Green said that there are some that need to be purchased and sent to you later."
"Just call the second wife, it's strange, Mrs. Green." Chen Shou smiled angrily.
Although Lu'er is not very old, she is the first concubine, so she is the second child.
Chen Shou thought that his senior official was so high that he was selling medicine in Yanggu County, but his concubine was equal to him, and he was also six. He was really not a woman.
It's ridiculous that he looked at people's colors with high handles, but he actually spoke slanderous words, which is really ridiculous.
Chen Shou asked Lu'er to prepare some children's applications, plus gold locks, toys, and small clothes, and prepared to send them to the summer palace.
"Why haven't Lu'er come yet?"
I was bored, so I asked the two maids to unbutton their tops and put them together, revealing the white and fragrant dried chicken. After playing with them for a while, Lu'er ate another cup of tea before she arrived.
She wore a small white silk jacket, her tender body was a little round recently, and she had a charming charm. She wiped the thin sweat from her forehead, with a smile in her eyes, and asked secretly: "Master, tell me the truth to Lu'er, have you added a population to our mansion outside? Are you a man or a woman? Are you fat? Do you look the same as Master?"
Chen Shou pinched her cheek, sipped incense, and said, "Don't ask if you shouldn't ask, don't ask randomly. If your wife finds out, we won't have a good time."
Lu'er winked at him and laughed, "Are you still afraid of your wife?"
"It's not fear, it's respect." Chen Shou said seriously: "I, Chen Shou, are you afraid of your wife?"
Lu'er and the two maids nodded together. Chen Shou was so angry that he slapped the table, and slapped each of the three behind him, and said sneakily: "No one is allowed to say anything. If there is any wind in our yard, I will hang you three up and dip your whip in water."
"The master knows how capable it is to show off his abilities to us?" Lu'er covered her butt, smiled while walking, and made a face at him.
If this is someone else, even Princess Huaishan, Chen Shou is not afraid. The main reason is that this child is born to him and Li Lingfeng. If Li Lingyue knows, he will have to make a big fuss. His wife punches her and is afraid that she will not be able to survive it.
Recently, Li Lingyue went to see her sister and was turned away several times. Her gossip was ignited and she urged Chen Shou to inquire several times.
Chen Shou was excused, but Li Lingyue simply concluded that his sister and her little lover were probably pregnant, which scared Chen Shou to his face turned pale.
Speaking of which, I haven't been there for several days, but today I have been plucking up the courage to go to the summer palace to see my unborn baby.
This style is like a thief. Chen Shou sighed in the carriage: "I feel sorry for parents in the world."
